INCOMING AC SERVICE
Make sure the incoming AC line service is sufficient. If circuit breakers are tripping, fuses blow during the night
or the charger does not give the required starting rate when sound batteries are put on charge, an AC line
problem exists. The electrical service to the vehicle storage facility should be sufficient to deliver adequate
voltage and current to each charger with all the chargers turned on. If not, consult your local power company
or electrical contractor.
See Section 15 – Battery Charger.
FLEET ROTATION
Rotate vehicle usage. It is very hard on batteries if the last vehicles in at night are the first ones out in the
morning. Spread the workload evenly, giving all vehicles the same amount of use. This will keep your fleet in
balance and will not overwork certain sets of batteries.
See following NOTE.
NOTE:
When vehicles are being rotated, the Club Car CDM (Communication Display Module) can be a
very helpful service tool. Monitoring the value of function 3 with the CDM simplifies vehicle usage
scheduling.
See Communication Display Module (CDM), Section 11, Page 11-45.
NUMBERING VEHICLES AND CHARGERS
Return the vehicles to the same charger each night if possible. If the vehicles are put in a storage facility at
random and a vehicle dies while in use and testing shows the batteries are sound, then the problem is most
likely with the charger. However, finding the problem charger may prove to be quite time consuming. Number-
ing the vehicles and the chargers and returning each vehicle to its designated charger each night can signif-
icantly reduce the amount of time spent troubleshooting a problem.
